    Unkept building, unresponsive management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Good access to prospect park, subways, and Franklin Ave/PLG restaurant and bar offerings.
    Cons:
    Roach infested unit (probably 75+ roaches over 6 months), rat infested courtyard (where you take garbage), unannounced water shutoffs (at least 6 -7 times in a year), completely unresponsive management. Super means well but is overextended, thus inconsistent (if any) follow-through on repairs/requests.
